Give this lovely man a follow please and if you can offer any advice or help at all, please do. He was always a great presence on Twitter.

Delighted that lovely Irish tweeter David O'Brien (below) formerly @thepainterflynn and now tweeting from @oddweirdadvice is doing better after a lengthy and stressful hospital stay in Tipperary. The hospital wants to discharge him, but David has nowhere to go. He would prefer to avoid going into a home if possible. Is there anyone who might be able to help? Also, David, who had a huge amount of followers, lost them all when Twitter recently closed his account. Give him a follow at @oddweirdadvice and say hi. You won't regret it - David's former account was one of the most uplifting on Irish Twitter. PS David's story demonstrates that as a country we are failing the elders among us. They have immense wisdom and dignity and deserve more support. Seems crazy that they receive so little when we will (if lucky) all be elderly ourselves some day, with no guarantee that our children, if any, will be even in the same country!

Jeepers, another Twitter account in difficulties. You may have known him as @thepainterflynn but David O'Brien has had to create a new account @oddweirdadvice after some Twitter difficulties (presumably he was hacked?).
The loss of the account coincided with a bout of ill-health and his friend Ruth below is appealing for help.

Absolutely amazing crowd here in the The Convention Centre in Dublin for the Ignite Conference. Scott Hahn was brilliant! So inspiring! Catholicism is flourishing in Ireland. @TheCCD #IgniteIrelandConference #Ignite #CatholicTwitter

@MGonigle @thesecondgoing He obviously wasn’t moving at one stage. Did they not notice that he was in bad shape and try to resuscitate him? Why was that hood pulled up over his head? I heard one man in the crowd objecting but someone tried to stop him. What a dreadful way for someone to end their life!

19 days post surgery abroad. CHI said this surgery wasn’t possible. No funding was available for treatment abroad. No child should be left untreated.

The Irish Family Planning Association (IFPA) and the abortion-supporting doctors’ group START, focused their attacks this week on Breda O’Brien’s recent powerful article defending the three-day period of reflection before an abortion.
Given all that has happened in recent weeks – including the defeat of the Soc Dem bill in the Dáil seeking to abolish the three-day wait – the latest interventions from both groups bring home, in a fresh and striking way, just how impoverished their arguments really are. Their hostility to even a brief period of reflection exposes the weakness of their case, and underlines why we must keep up the pressure to ensure they do not get their way.

@TheLiberal_ie I hope any potential tourists won’t believe this. Dublin is a great spot-amazing architecture, great for the arts, culture, theatre, history, beautiful beaches, lovely restaurants and some of the best pubs and music venues in the world. #ILoveDublin #Dublin #Ireland

Are you romanticising a holiday to Ireland? 🇮🇪
Well, Dublin has turned into a third world kip over the past 20 years thanks to our government’s over border policy allowing migrants flood our shores from Africa, India and Asia. We want them out!
Spot the Irishman, if you can!

@DKJDel @JakeFitzsimons I didn’t forget him. The poor man seems to have been knocked over in the chaos that surrounded the whole awful incident.
English
@Paul71 @JakeFitzsimons Don’t forget the elderly man he seriously injured which most certainly sees his premature end.

I love the rhetoric around Yves Sakila from the leftists talking about neglecting people in need and the woes of late stage capitalism and resorting to crime out of hunger and desperation and blah blah as if he stole food or baby formula or an actual necessity or something.
They guy shoplifted an Arnotts.
Bro wanted some free drip.

@SpursPaolo @griptmedia You're wrong there. I see lots and lots of people saying that it's really sad and many do care about a traumatic death like that on an Irish street. If it was a dog or cat, you'd feel sorry for it, even more so with a human being. RIP 🙏🏻
Ireland 🇮🇪 English
@griptmedia No one with an iota of sense in their head gives a fuck than an illegal immigrant criminal died while committing yet another crime to add to his record here.
If these people don't want to participate in a high trust society, they should all be deported.
Remigration now!

There have been emotional scenes on Dublin’s Henry Street this afternoon after a crowd gathered to mourn the death of Congolese man, Yves Salika, last Friday.

@helerina @griptmedia Often situations with some people who are homeless can be quite complicated. I knew a guy who ended up homeless and his sister was willing to give him a place to live but he ended up back on the streets. So sad 😔
Ireland 🇮🇪 English
@griptmedia If it true that the deceased lived in a homeless hostel, why didn’t some of his family take him in and look after him? Did they abandon him? Do they share culpability? Rest in peace Yves. Any loss of like is tragic.
English
@irishnational10 @griptmedia So, just wrong place, wrong time? There seems to be more to it than that. Anyone who saw that video of him slowly becoming unresponsive would have to be totally shocked and traumatised. Really awful!
Ireland 🇮🇪 English
@griptmedia He had 50 previous convictions, if we had proper immigration control he'd have been deported years ago and this unfortunate incident would not have happened.
English
@fatima_gunning The advice would usually be not to get involved in any physical interaction unless it is relatively easy to detain someone until the Gardaí appear. Not worth causing injury or getting injured yourself over a few packets of sweets, a few beers or a bottle of perfume.

We've gone from "IT professional" to homeless criminal living in a shelter, which provides addiction services very quickly.

A Congolese man who died after an altercation with security staff on Henry Street, Dublin, had a history of stealing from Arnott’s. gript.ie/man-had-histor…

@fatima_gunning My family member works in retail and petty theft is a huge issue but you wouldn’t want to be under any illusion that it’s only certain categories of people who take things. A lot of casual theft is from students and not only in poorer areas.

People see the smile but not the engineering to keep it in place. It is bolted together with grit, humour, pain, hard work and the bloody-minded refusal to collapse.
